The fairies have moved in! Check out these amazing fairy homes in skirting boards
Explore the whimsical world of pixies, fairies and elves behind these magical skirting board doors
Bring your child's imagination to life with a magical fairy door in the skirting board of their bedroom or playroom.
Make them as masculine, feminine and whimsical as you like and watch as the door opens your child's mind to lands of floating fairies, Hobbiton elves and princess pixies...
With the help of a simple wooden door, mini letterbox, tiny doorknocker and some imagination this fairy door has been given a life of its own.
Rumour has it that spaghetti slurping and tooth brushing can even be heard behind it...
Decorated in ornate flowers, glittery butterflies, a happy fairy and finished in pastel paint and sprinkled with tonnes of glitter - this is the perfect addition to a little girl's bedroom skirting board to allow the fairies to flutter in and out at night time.
This satin white door looks just like the adult ones around the house and is just the right size for the tooth fairy. It also comes with a ‘hop-up'
ladder so tiny fairy feet can reach the door if it's stuck up high.

This fairy flutter hole sat inside a giant mushroom is pretty special as small hinges allow the door to swing wide open and expose a floating fairy resting inside.

Not technically for fairies, but how adorable is this little mouse hole sticker? The table is set for cheese and biscuits, so we're sure the squeaky homeowner wouldn't mind if a fairy friend dropped in for tea.
